and what do you mean by twisting exactly?
The cage it’s self could rotate around the mounting points slightly.
But… I’ve actually just got to the bottom of it just there. I went to the bike to get a photo to show what I meant.
But I noticed that the bottle cage rivets have clear coat over them. The rivets have a textured surface that helps grip on to the cage, but they haven’t been masked of during painting and the clear coat has smoothed over the textured surface.I just took a pick and chipped into the clear coat a little to rough it up and reinstalled the cage and it’s now much more solid!
Glad it’s sorted, had been annoying me for ages.

Will have to go and have a look - that bike is in storage! From memory though, i don’t recall any twisting (and what do you mean by twisting exactly?)
And agree - the ones in that vid look different (profile of the ‘U’ is different).
